INTERVIEW: Thianna D plus #Giveaway! #BDSM #MMRomance

Hello Thianna, and welcome to The Hat Party! <3 Thank you so much for joining us! Why do you don your best hat, and we'll get this party started??

Tell us a little bit about yourself.

I’m 4’10”. Yep, that’s little. *grins* Umm, that’s such an open ended question. I’m the quiet type who prefers to observe rather than talk. If given the choice between doing anything in a crowd and sitting alone, I’d prefer the latter. I prefer a few close friends to a large group of acquaintances. I’m a strong, intelligent woman who is also a submissive. But demand something of me without permission? I turn into a tigress.

Anyone can buy the rights to name a star. What would you name a star bought for you?

My first thought is it is the ultimate brattiness of us humans that we think we have the right to name the stars. We truly think far too much of ourselves. I’m sure most of those stars have already been named by others out there somewhere. That said, if someone bought me a star and asked me to name it? I think I’d want to name it something crazy like “I’m free!” or “The dot in the middle of nothing.” or “Ha! You can’t catch me” or even better “I’m burning up!” just to see their response. :)

Do you buy a book because of the cover, the blurb, or some other reason?

The cover catches my attention, but it is the blurb that will seal the deal. For me, they both have to be good. If it is a bad cover or bad blurb, I’m not likely to buy it.

Do you have a library card and know where it is?

Actually I don’t. In the town I live in, the library has almost nothing. I moved here from Portland, OR, though, and there I did have a library card and used it often.

For Christian Darringer, life
isn’t worth living. Just back from the Middle East; scarred and with permanent
damage to one leg, he does not think anyone will want him for anything. Meeting
a gorgeous man he finds himself thinking about constantly is not in his plans.
Pulled toward the startling younger man with striking blue eyes, he begins to
question a lot of things – especially his sexuality. Not one to hide from a
challenge, he plunges ahead only to find himself more than just attracted to
Logan who is full of life and joy, he finds himself head over heels in love.

Logan Mannette has almost everything he ever wanted: loving parents, happiness,
friends and security. The only thing missing is finding the love of his life, a
love that is just like his parents’. When he meets Christian at a party,
everything changes. Instantly attracted, he does his best to help this sad man
and quickly finds himself feeling more than he has ever felt before. Raised in
a domestic discipline household, he holds that ideal as what he wants but his
interest in spanking became a fetish and when Christian admits that he wants to
be spanked, Logan believes he might have found the perfect man.

Just as everything begins for them, Christian’s past intercedes and one of his
brothers makes waves about him dating a man. If it weren’t for Logan’s support,
he might fold; but with the love of one amazing man, Christian finds that
living his life rather than just existing is as natural as breathing.

Dinner was easy, the easiest
first date Christian had ever been on. Logan laughed, talked, teased, but it
felt like he was with a friend rather than with a date…but then again, that was
what he asked for. After two large platters of sushi disappeared between the
two of them, they paid and left. “Okay, we can drive or we can walk. The
theater is only ten blocks.” Then Logan’s eyes dropped to his leg.

“Damn, I
forgot about your leg. Maybe we should drive.”

Shaking his head, Christian
placed a hand on his arm. “Naw. I walk by the river all the time. I think I’d
like to walk.”

Logan watched him, as if trying
to make up his mind if Christian meant it or not. When he figured he did, he
beamed. “Great. There is this cool piece of art you have got to see.”

About the Author: Thianna loves to write strong stories with even stronger heroes. While all of her books have an erotic overtone, it is the story that is the most important to her. “The story should be able to stand on its own. The erotic elements are an add-on.”

She enjoys writing about couples with kink, paranormal couples, and straight out strangeness. But more on that later… mm.thiannad.com.
